"Her delicate vocals pirouette through expansive soundscapes across I Love Nali, the BPM dialing up and down with her feelings."
"I'm especially partial to the wistful, OG Ron C-channeling 'i.m.u.' and the crush-struck rush of 'all day,' which sounds like second date drinks on a sunny afternoon."
"Nali has spent much of the spring on tour with Jordan Ward; the Brooklyn native's also been working on her first album I Hate Nali, releasing new single 'Maybe' with Coi Leray at the end of February."
